Description

Completely rehabbed 4 bedroom / 3.1 bath home in highly desirable Roscoe Village, originally a bungalow that underwent a full gut renovation in 2001 with all new electric, plumbing, gas, and ductwork, plus a substantial three-story rear addition. The home seamlessly blends character and modern updates, highlighted by a preserved exposed brick feature wall in the family room marking the original structure. Gorgeous oak flooring throughout the entire first floor. The kitchen features quartz countertops,...Completely rehabbed 4 bedroom / 3.1 bath home in highly desirable Roscoe Village, originally a bungalow that underwent a full gut renovation in 2001 with all new electric, plumbing, gas, and ductwork, plus a substantial three-story rear addition. The home seamlessly blends character and modern updates, highlighted by a preserved exposed brick feature wall in the family room marking the original structure. Gorgeous oak flooring throughout the entire first floor. The kitchen features quartz countertops, pristine soft-close 42" cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, and opens to a bright family room with direct access to a rear deck and beautifully sized backyard-ideal for entertaining. A two-car garage completes the exterior. In 2016, the original foundation was fully underpinned, high recovery water heater and HVAC were replaced and a humidifier with dual zoning was installed, creating a spacious lower level with a 4th bedroom en suite, quartz countertops, media room with wet bar, along with radiant heated floors for added comfort. New roof on garage and house, new siding, front bedroom windows and ejector pump in 2020. The upper level showcases soaring cathedral ceilings and a beautifully appointed primary bedroom with en suite, a double vanity with quartz countertops, and a generous walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms are well-proportioned, each offering ample closet space. This is a thoughtfully expanded and meticulously updated home with significant structural improvements-far from your typical rehab. A separate garage electrical panel, added in 2024, delivers dedicated capacity for EV charging and additional power-an ideal modern upgrade.
